The Details
Inspired by iconoclasts of yesteryear, this classic frame stands the test of time.
A classic squared frame in plant-based bioacetate, middling in width, so it fits most faces and looks neither oversized nor pinched. Lunar Tortoise Bio / Polarized G15 puts a tortoise front with a polarized lens; Black Bio / Deep Rose is the plainer of the two. Traditional hinges, wire-core temples that bend to the shape of the head. The choice for someone who wants a frame that looks lived-in from the first wear rather than of the moment, and which will not date out of the rotation.
Features
- Plant-based bioacetate frame, biodegradable and petroleum-free
- CR-39 optical-grade lenses with 100% UVA/UVB protection, polarized on select colourways
- 5-barrel stainless steel hinges
- Wire-core temples for an adjustable fit

What people say
I have a big head and hate how every “wide” sunglasses from other brands think the solution is just making their lenses massive.
I will say they are a tad bit small for my 7 1/2 hat size head. Red lenses are great for when I want to wear them around dusk.
These fit and stay on well with my oval-shaped face and a flatter nose bridge. Style-wise, they are trendy while also timeless.
I tried a few different models of other crap eyewear glasses and they felt too small for my big head but these fit great! They look cool and compliment my rounder face well.
A deep classic square that fits big heads by going taller, not wider: 141 mm across, 46 mm deep, 145 mm temples. The 23 mm bridge suits flat and wide noses; narrow noses will be pushing it back up.
